2 <br />submitted comments to the consultant to incorporate into the scope. Attachment 1 is the Study <br />Scope Outline Draft. The anticipated study timeline is 12-15 months (Attachment 2). <br />NCDOT requires the creation of a steering committee to guide the study. The steering <br />committee composition requirements were provided to Orange County and Chapel Hill Transit. <br />This committee will include the full range of human service stakeholders as well as local <br />government partners and general transit users. The committee will be formed after the study <br />scope of work is finalized and the contract is signed. The estimated timeline is January 2011. In <br />addition to the steering committee, the study team (Orange County Planning, Chapel Hill Transit <br />and NCDOT) will develop a reporting mechanism to provide timely study updates to the elected <br />officials and seek guidance and feedback. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: <br />• There is no financial impact associated with the study. NCDOT sponsors the study <br />100%. The study cost will be developed after the scoping process is completed. <br />• The financial impact of study recommendations will be determined once the study is <br />completed. The study will be completed within the 15-month timeframe with interim <br />phases to assist the County through other decision phases. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board receive the report. <br />
